1 small Twist! – what a balloon artist can teach you about passion, purpose, and fulfillment.
Life Coach and balloon artist Jimmy Leo will speak about how slight adjustments, with time, result in huge desired changes. The idea of change makes many people nervous, to a point where we are taught early on to establish a comfort zone and never stray from it. Despite that, many people feel a sense of stagnation at some point, leaving a sense of illusion towards what they value. The concept of change is foreign and frightening to many, leaving us to wonder how to go about finding the things in life that will help us feel truly fulfilled.
“One Small Twist” shows the power of words and subtle actions work against us, but more importantly, how to find a well-positioned attitude shift to embrace the very things that are feared, creating a new path of thoughts, words, actions, and experiences to achieving whatever is desired.
